  Well.....Im sure SMRT Bus is trying its best given its pathetic fleet....The proportion of high capacity buses is much lower than that of SBST, SBST has roughly 700 ADDs, which is ard 45% of its fleet size, excluding the VO2-Ax while TIBS has ard 290 units only, which is less than SBST.
  
  Do pride CCK for still having one of the most frequent svcs in S'pore, svc 190.

  if i nv count wrongly SBST has 741 DDs, excluding the VO 2axles. Supposed to have 742 but SBS 9013 E got scrapped.

  How the 742 figure? Too lazy to count really. I don't see any demos except our darling 9888Y.

  I wouldn't classify it under demo as it's only difference is that it was bodied in Australia and has EDS.

  Yes, I do pride for having one of the most popular, famous, better frequency & respected service in Singapore. btw, the frequency from NBR to CCK is not so good...I think because of Traffic Jams @ town area.
  
  I also do pride for having the second townlink service in singapore, 307. I'm not complaining about anything, I don't really understand why you ask me to pride?

  I think there should be 471 VO 3-axles...
  
  SBS9200G to SBS9300B = 101 buses
  SBS9301 to SBS9400X = 100 buses
  SBS9401T to SBS9600K = 200 buses
  SBS9601H to SBS9670 = 70 buses
  
  which adds up to a total of 471 buses.
  
  SBS' order for the first batch of Volvo Olympians consists of 100 VO 2-axles and 201 VO 3-axles.
  
  There should be 51 VSOs...
  
  SBS9800A to SBS9849K = 50 buses
  SBS9888Y = 1 bus
  
  which adds up to a total of 51 buses.
  
  Cheers and warm regards
